Boost if you've recently attended a "poorly run small music venue" that actually managed to put on a show
@pikesley Have scarcely attended any others between The Trades Club and The Brudenell. Shout out to The Piece Hall, which manages biggish gigs OK too (no ceiling for shoddily attached A/C units to fall from, see). Last arena gig would have been at (checks notes) the existing arena in Manchester which still works OK.
